easier that way so im not let down. if i say they will win last 2 games and they dont then i will be let down. so if i say no shot and it does not happen then its par for course. in all reality they are not winning last 2 games without rodgers.

have a chance this week with no rodgers. no chance next week with no rodgers. Of course most thought we would lose last week and look what happened.

At worse if you play him sunday, he breaks his collarbone fully. Okay. a 3-5 month heal. He would be fine by August/September. And its his non-throwing collarbone. No ones career is in jeopardy over a collarbone. Plus, all he misses is off season stuff anyways if he gets hurt again. Whoop de do. Not like it jeapordizes 2014 whatsoever.

Yeah, there is absolutely no downside to your $22M/year franchise QB breaking his collarbone twice in 3 months. None. I mean what could possibly be a problem? Oh, maybe there are some bone development concerns, And maybe there's a concern that Rodgers would have limited activity for the better part of 6 months...but aside from those things...

Poor weather forecast means the safe bet is to stick with Flynn. Slow feel will necessitate a big running game - could be Lacy's (and Stark's) finest hour. Manage the game offensively, and make a few plays on defense ALL game and we move on the Chicago for all the marbles. Then you bring back your big gun.

Even more reason to play Rodgers this week. Lots of running means less chance of getting hit and injured and let him get back into the flow slowly rather than being thrown into the fire against a fired up bears team.

Well - I would have liked Rodgers to return not onluy to help the pack on Sunday, but to shake some rust off before (if??) he plays next Sunday....no go...the soft Packer mentality continues.

In almost as bad of news - Jolly out for the season AND Jones back at practice. I'd love to see more Lattimore and Richardson and much less Jones and MD Jennings. Jennings is just absolutely terrible...

I guess it's better to be safe, put our second best foot forward and miss the playoffs. After all, someone might get hurt in those extra playoff games, and we have to ready for next season. What a load of crap!

This weekly charade about Rodgers potentially playing is getting extremely old. How about some truthful explanations with realistic reasonable expectations for a return to action for Rodgers from 1060 Lombardi Avenue? I guess that's asking too much. What do they care since the stadium is sold out, and rubes keep on paying whether they win or lose?

Well Gossip you don't get it. Let me explain. If the Packers know that Rodgers will or won't play then it is to their advantage to keep Pittsburgh guessing since they will have to scheme for him and for Flynn either way. Makes them devote resources they wouldn't have to if the Packers came out and Said, "Rodgers is in" or "Rodgers is out". Any advantage in the NFL is big.

The media is to blame for all this b.s.. The organization doesn't owe us squat when it comes to these decisions. Stupid immediate gratification crowd just going to have to get over itWere you not entertained last Sunday?

When the Packers win you can go cheer for them because obviously you are only a fair weather fan and love to hate on them. You said the same thing last week before the Cowboys game. We don't need fans like you.

Again everyone's hopes are high he will play and then disappointment. Did he have another bone scan or not? If not then what are they really basing it off of. He has been practicing for what 3 weeks now? Time to get back in there or just say he is out for the season, enough of this already. Yeah I know the doctors have to clear him, but I feel if he really wanted to play he would be in there. Since when does a team doctor have the ability to keep the franchise player off the field during a playoff run over an injury that is neither career ending or life threatening. Worse case he reinjures it and comes back for training camp next year.

Didn't Terrell Owens come back from a broken ankle in like 3 weeks or something when they went to the Superbowl that year? Running on a broken bone has to be much worse than possibly landing on one.

No way Favre is number one. He was a hell of a competitor, but the dude was still making rookie mistakes at the end of his career. His refusal to play smart (he wasn't capable of that) and limit his turnovers cost the Packers a lot of wins and maybe even some championships.

You could say Starr and Rodgers are tied for #1 right now. But Rodgers is passing Bart. He's not only the best QB in the NFL, his play the last few years is possibly the best any QB has ever played.
